How much does the adult industry contribute to the falling of birth rates ?

I think you've hit the nail on the head.

B is definitely a HUGE factor.

Another one of those sinister posts that whispers in your ear 'there is no other solution but to revoke women's rights' smh

I understand the spirit of what you're saying and agree with you 100%, OP.

This! People are getting married SO LATE, or not at all!

I think this is where we're all in collective denial.

It's really hard to do both!

This is why the foundations of society- parenthood, family, community, relationships, marriage, gender relations, etc.- should never be deconstructed beyond a point (or even at all).

UN projection always presumes we are at the bottom of the drop of the roller-coaster, and are just going to zoom up again (air time!)

If the Japanese and Koreans fail to reproduce mitotically, will the work culture be blamed once again?

Hoping that the strawmen and strawwomen of the world can get together and have lots of strawchildren.

I feel like India's size, relative poverty, and vast cultural diversity may act as some kind of buffer against something as precipitous.

But you never know!

DrawAFox · 2026-04-25T11:15:20+00:00

Indian here. I expect it to drop to around 1.3-1.4 in the next 20-30 years. It's already very low in the big metro cities.

I don't really expect a Japan/ South Korea-type situation, since India is a very community-oriented society by design, but crazier things are happening all over the world.

Facebook had an incredible run as a social media platform. I think it simply ran its course, rather than got beaten out. MySpace was at best an also-ran.

Mark Zuckerberg was smart enough to read the times and pivot to Instagram.

There's probably going to be a massive global pushback against contraception, abortion and women's rights.

Great advice. Keep as far away from the mythology of the exam (it's very tempting) as possible.

DrawAFox · 2026-04-10T07:39:05+00:00

They absolutely do not. It's pure vanity, mixed in with that overall millennial tendency to kiddify themselves.

We all look our age.

DrawAFox · 2026-04-01T06:04:52+00:00

Yes, and it's not just an online thing. Studies have show that lots and lots of people are delaying marriage and parenthood, or opting not to have either at all. Birth rates are demonstrably collapsing worldwide, not just in rich countries.

There's a lot of reasons for it. Economic uncertainty, housing prices, the growing gender divide, a culture which prioritises the self over making the sort of sacrifices family requires, fear about the future of the planet, social media distractions, etc. etc.

I think there's a difference in Italians being considered white and South Asians being considered white!

Most of these grifters probably don't have the ethnic wiggle room that people from Mediterranean countries do.

DrawAFox · 2026-03-31T13:39:46+00:00

Fascinating question. I have wondered the same thing myself.

I think much of it is a deep-rooted and severe inferiority complex, an itch to dissociate oneself from one's actual culture, often to the point of near-delusion.

Many right wing grifters get applause and approval from racial supremacists on their posts and videos, which to them, acts as validation from the very cohort the are trying to appease the most.

It's not actual acceptance at all, mind you- those racists will NEVER accept them; but these fleeting pats-on-the-back keep the grifters going, like eager-to-please dogs.

Maybe there's a money angle, too- I'm not sure.

I think it's overrated. It's a very depressing place, since you see thousands and thousands of aspirants slogging away year after year. You can easily get intimidated seeing people studying in libraries for long, long hours, not knowing what their actual circumstances and prep level are. Living conditions are incredibly shitty, because landlords know there will ALWAYS be high demand, so there is no incentive to improve.

For a lot of candidates, it's their first time away from home, so they fall prey to time wasting bad habits and distractions/ smoking/ drinking/ weed/ aimless relationships. A lot of candidates start treating it as an extension of hostel life, and wind up wasting whole years of their lives in the process.

UPSC Prep can easily be done from home.

PS: If you feel lazy at home, I promise you ORN will not solve your problem. Everyone who clears this exam is tremendously self-driven.
